Are you in search for the perfect gift for someone you love? They say love is something you do, not something you say. So why don't you do something this year about your less than ideal gift-giving abilities. In this class, you will be creating and designing your very own fused glass pendants, the perfect gift to show someone you care. No experience is necessary in this class as you will learn a number of different glassblowing techniques, including the basics of cutting, firing and coldworking. So if you're in search for the perfect gift to give, look no further. The gift is in you, just make it!

All great glassblowers need to get their start somewhere. For you, that means 2-3 paperweights, and perhaps a drinking glass.
In this introductory class, you'll be working with a professional artisan in class sizes of no more than three- that means lots of hands-on training and attention as you explore this molten hot hobby.
You'll learn to work with a crucible kiln to gather liquefied glass, how to form that glass into a bubble using a blowpipe, and how to shape and cool it into artistic and functional forms.
Glassblowing has long been esteemed as one of the most exotic crafts, and now you get to try it for yourself !

Can't get enough precious accessories? Or maybe you're looking to make some fat stacks of cash on the side.
Either way, this workshop is the perfect stepping stone for learning one of the world's most revered and ancient crafts: jewelry making!
Each class focuses on different aspects of jewelry craftsmanship, including wire wrapping, forging, enameling, soldering, bead stringing, and macrame.
In the end, you'll not only have a new accessory or two to take home with you, you'll have the knowledge you'll need to carry on and perfect your work in your leisure time. Sparkly times await!

Have you just been blowing it at work lately? Need to blow off some steam? Well, put your skills to good use, and blow some glass! The art of creation is a great way to relieve stress; it will fundamentally open your mind to a more creative and positive energy. At this Intro to Glassblowing class, you'll learn the fundamentals of glassblowing as you discover the joys and rewards of meticulously gathering and shaping the glass into tangible items that you can take home and actually use. Applying heat, and adding a frit of color, you will be able to create with your hands (er, mouth) a piece of beautiful, delicate glassware fit for a Christmas tree.

Are your earlobes in constant need of new and interesting companions? Do the jewelry counter attendants know you by name? Perhaps it's time to give your bank balance a break by learning to craft your very own earrings!
This workshop class covers all of the basics, and when all's said and done you'll walk out with at least three new pairs of earrings, plus the skills to make more at your leisure.
You'll explore numerous options in crafting elegant, handmade pieces, using wire and headpins, chains, beads, and simple wire working tools.
Class sizes are kept intentionally small, so you'll enjoy ample personal attention as you master this wonderful art. Best of all, your new accessories will get you so many compliments, your ears will never stop ringing!

I have taken two tours with Vimbly and am looking forward to many more in the future! They have a wide variety of opportunities, many of which I would never have thought of doing. Both tours that I attended were well organized, interesting, and fun. I look to Vimbly for ideas and activities when I want to find something fun to do.

Used Vimbly 3 times now: booked a Knife Skills class at Institute of Culinary Education, booked tickets to Improvised Shakespeare (HOW DID THEY EVEN GET ACCESS TO THESE???), and booked tickets to an Improv show at the Upright Citizen's Brigade. Really simple and efficient way to find something to do and book it right away without ever having to pick up a phone. I like that you can search by date and also category.

As far as a rating, I'd absolutely give your site a 10. It's easy to use, easy to find whats upcoming, unambiguous and concise. It's something my mother could use without calling me seven times with questions. I've already pointed some friends to the site, and you can be sure I'll be using it in the future.

I already have recommended it to a friend! Several in fact. The site is such a good idea and I love how the people at Church Street knew we were coming and treated us like their own customers and not coupon redeemers. My girlfriend and I will definitely be going back there and are already looking on your site for what to do next weekend.

Evan W.

Easily one of the best dates I've been on, and I have Vimbly to thank for the idea. Planning to use it again while I'm in the city for the next month, and already reminded my coworkers about it.
